Unable to deploy BigBang when deployed over an EC2

I stood up an EC2 on AWS, and I deployed BigBang v1.12, using the customer template. When I run watch kubectl get hr,po -A - everything is running fine. However I can't connect to kiali or any of the URLs through my browser.

I try to connect with "http://10.23.2.19" and "https://10.23.2.19/". But nothing happens. And I set the IP / host in my /etc/hosts file but nothing either. Also tried http://bigbang.archie.upgovcloud.org/ and https://bigbang.archie.upgovcloud.org/

If I do " k get service -A" -- I see the "external IP" is stuck on "pending" for the istio-system.

istio-system istio-ingressgateway LoadBalancer 10.43.200.14 15021:32138/TCP,80:31205/TCP,443:31751/TCP,15012:31273/TCP,15443:30849/TCP 12m

Also when on my EC2, I try the below things which fail: [ec2-user@ip-10-23-2-19 ~]$ curl localhost curl: (7) Failed to connect to localhost port 80: Connection refused [ec2-user@ip-10-23-2-19 ~]$ curl kibana.bigbang.dev curl: (7) Failed to connect to kibana.bigbang.dev port 80: Connection refused

I do see that I have a service for "traefic", and that has an external IP. When on the EC2 I "curl 178.18.0.2) (the external IP) - and I get "404 not found".
